and it will go to my children as o precious
legacy. am in full sympathy with the
object and purposes Of the Fair, and
hope that may be able at sometime in
the future TO aid and assist the school.
What nobfcr purpose conld be the aim
of any community than aiding and assist
ing theirnoble women, Sisters Of Charity,
i'll their heaven appointed; works
For the last seyen years. i have Witness
ed their christian work, their devotion to
the afflicted. Our great hospital ut New
Orleans would stand "a q meaningless
structure without their sacrifices and de-
voted work. To-day it is the first insti-
tuition of the kind in the world, and it

And which can he saved by planters
and merchants on shipping 10 this
point-S1.35 per bale. We vii! here
add that planters and merchants SELL
ing their cotton here, are much better
satisfied with their weights here than
the returns they receive from New
Orleans. The charge of so cents per
bale fer selling the cotton in Alexan-
dria can be saved by planters coming
to town and selling their cotton in
person, thus reducing the expense
simply to amount of freight paid.
Parties bringing their cotton in on
wagons are subjected to no charge
whatsoever and save fully So per
bale.
Messrs. Rogers & Williams and Mr..
L. V. Marye will attend to the weigh
ing and selling of any cotton ship
ped to them at the moderate cost of
soc per bale.
Try the Alexandria Cotton Market
and you will not ship again to New
Orleans. So saved is 50 made.

The spell of weather we have had
in Alexandria since our last issue GER
tainly beats anything Of the kind ever
seen by ye Oldest inhabitant. For
the Sunny South it is unusual-earlier
by at least three weeks than ever be-
fore. We have had rain, sleet and
snow-the two latter in bountiful pro-
fusion. The snow ball. brigade took
advantage of the opportunity and
made the pedestrians who we're in-
clined to perambulate around, look to
their heels. Fighting with snow balls
is a pleasant pastime to some-for our
part we want none of it. The boys
enjoyed it, however, as also did their
sisters, their cousins and their aunts.

WE feel certain that everyone of
the gentlemen whom we are support
ing will be nominated by the Parish
Convention when it meets. We have
advanced their claims for Office in an
honest way, free from any slurs at
their opponents, and urged the why's
and wherefores. Common sense and
argument will win in these days of
progression and Democratic rule; chin
music, clap-trap, street talk, and an
inclination to bulldoze will not elect
any one. Our candidates know this,
and they want us to urge their nomi-
nation on this plan. Blackman, Han
ter, (Robt. P.) Meeker, Stafford, Watts
and Andrews will surely be named as
the nominees of the Democratic party
Of old Rapides when the Convention
meets. Then won't the people be
happy.

In an alteration, at Shreveport,
on Saturday last between Frank Jones,
who is we'll known in Alexandria, and
Capt. james w. Smith, Of Shreveport,
the former was killed, aud the latter
severely if not fatally wounded. OF
the particulars Of the affair, the Shreve-
port Democrat says:
Capt. Smith, from what wc can
gather, who standing in the back yard
Of the saloon, and Mr. Joucs was GO
ing up the steps in the rear of the ope-
ra house. Mr.. Jones slipped and fell,
when Mr.. Smith langhipgly called to
him to him to try it again, aud said
that ifhe could not getsup, he would
help him. To which Jones replied !:
of You viii wait until / come, you
son of a bib, I'll put the laugh on
you" Jones then came down toswhele
Capt. Smith stood, when some words
passed and perhaps a lick, after which,
there seems to have heen mutual
apology, and Capt. Smith, saying call
right, that settles it," started hack into
the saloon, when Jones drew his pistol
and commenced firing on him. After
Jones had fired three shots, Smith
drew his pistol and returned the fire,
killing Jones on the spot. Smith, we
learn from DR.. O'Leary, who attended
him, is shot in FIVE places; twice in
the bowels, once in the wrist, once in
the left arm and once in tho hip. One
of the shots in the bowels burned bis
clothing, eyidencing that they must
have been very near each other.
